Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 3 whole carrots, chopped
• 3 pounds russet potatoes, diced
• 2 quarts vegetable broth
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• ½ cup heavy whipping cream
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

• ½ teaspoon cayenne

Optional Garnish: chives and shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

• In a large stock pot, over medium-high heat, cook the onions, carrots and celery in your olive oil for two minutes.
• Add the diced potatoes. Cook for another five minutes. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne and garlic powder.
• Pour in broth and bring it to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and milk, then pour it into the soup. Allow the soup to cook another five minutes.
